“We are saddened to read reports that the parents of the late Derek Boogaard have filed a lawsuit against the NHLPA,” the union said in a statement sent to The Associated Press. “We have not been served with or seen a copy of the complaint, but we are confident that there is no meritorious claim that can be made against the NHLPA in regard to Derek’s tragic death.”

Read the last paragraph. The family thinks the Rangers wer thee at fault for handing Boogaard the pills. The union is supposed to help on matters like that and they did not. I dont necessarily agree with the argument
